in reply to manipulating a matrix

If your work is based heavily on matrices manipulation I recommend you using PDL. Just for the record, if I remember well, the creator of PDL works on something related with astronomy, too. Maybe PDL::Matrix has something useful for you

Update: There is also another module that can help you in the creation and manipulation of matrices, Math::MatrixReal.

    I have gazed longingly at PDL for some time but am not sure my basic Perl knowledge is up to it (this is probably an excuse ... I can be good at excuses). The real restrictions are
    • time (to learn and implement it)
    • PDL may not be available to me in the environment this tool will run in
    I will have to check on the second item. I know others here use PDL, but the module situation here is complex.

    Thanks!
